    That's actually decent. Hoping for nice Studio Series Bee and not-quite-G1 Starscream.

    Honestly this looks legit for a gimmick toy, way better than that garbage we got with TLK.

    Like, no joke, this actually looks fun to play with. Good articulation, a clever transformation (Accurate wheel ankles on a gimmick toy? Imagine my shock), and a pretty bang-on alt mode too.

    I\'m going to be replacing the head with the inevitable shapeways G1 head.

    I approve, I would never put the face plate up though.

    I hope the rest of the line isn't filled with AOE Prime syndrome. (using the concept art instead of the new model)

    Quick question: Why are you still here?

    You lot that just come into any movie thread to whine about things.

    What meaningful dialogue are you adding to the conversation with posts like these? You don't like the thing we like, congrats.

    Love the alt mode; robot mode is garbage. :puke: 

    It's just too chubby and weird, imo. Good for kids, don't get me wrong... but for the inevitable $40-50 price tag, it's a complete pass both for me AND my kids! Sorry, Hasbro: electronic noises don't = $50+ purchase.

    Make it smaller and more affordable. And stop squeezing grandma's who are buying this junk! :banghead:

    This Gimmick toy looks better than 90% of POTP toys somehow.

    Was hoping to see the main toyline first, but for a gimmick figure it doesn't look bad, but definitely not for me.
